Hello everyone, I am learning how to use Astro and at the same time I am building some free templates so everyone can enjoy them.

🚀 Project Structure

Inside of your Astro project, you'll see the following folders and files:

├── README.md
├── astro.config.mjs
├── package.json
├── public
│   ├── favicon.ico
│   ├── social.jpg
│   └── social.png
├── src
│   ├── components
│   │   ├── Author.astro
│   │   ├── BlogHead.astro
│   │   ├── BlogPost.astro
│   │   ├── BlogPostPreview.astro
│   │   ├── Heading.astro
│   │   └── Paragraph.astro
│   ├── layouts
│   │   └── BlogPost.astro
│   ├── pages
│   │   ├── index.astro
│  
└── tsconfig.json  
└── tailwind.config

Astro looks for .astro or .md files in the src/pages/ directory. Each page is exposed as a route based on its file name.
There's nothing special about src/components/, but that's where we like to put any Astro/React/Vue/Svelte/Preact components.
Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public/ directory.

🧞 Commands

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
| Command | Action |
|:---------------- |:-------------------------------------------- |
| npm install | Installs dependencies |
| npm run dev | Starts local dev server at localhost:3000 |
| npm run build | Build your production site to ./dist/ |
| npm run preview | Preview your build locally, before deploying |
